Nice old building and pub. Rooms are a good size but a little odd. Peeling paint etc due to problems with the old building. Exceptional value.

Loved this Hotel!!!!!
I loved this hotel, it was so fun to stay at! The staff were very fun to talk to and gave great ideas of things to do. The food at the hotel was OMG so good. I would recommend this place for anyone who wants to be transport back in history. The balcony was so amazing to sit and drink tea.

No fuss check in, reasonable condition for such an old building (but hot water in shower of the en suite room is a major let down, plumbing work is required immediately) Good bistro facility and happy hour in the hotel. Although no on site parking in the building, free parking spots on the street after 6 pm is abundant.

A country pub feel in a city location, The Grand Hotel has comfortable accommodation with some old world charms mixed with modern touches. A great base to enjoy the appealing city of Newcastle.

Great location and nice room for a weekend stay. Was a bit worried about the noise level before arriving, but was super quiet on the top floor - no issues.

We loved the building, the location, the restaurant/bar, and the staff. We stayed in room 17 and it needs wall and window repairs done, and hanging rails in the bathroom. When it was windy (and it was very windy over several days and nights), there was a very loud vibrating sound coming from outside that was annoying and kept us awake.
